The presence of undesired vegetation causes substantial damage to useful crops, especially agricultural products that satisfy man's basic food and fiber needs, such as cotton, rice, corn, wheat, and the like. The current population explosion and concomitant world food and fiber shortage demand improvements in the efficiency of producing these crops. Prevention or minimizing the loss of a portion of such valuable crops by killing, or inhibiting the growth of undesired vegetation is one way of improving this efficiency. A wide variety of materials useful for killing, or inhibiting (controlling) the growth of undesired vegetation is available; such materials are commonly referred to as herbicides. The need still exists however, for more effective herbicides.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Synthesis

As shown in Equations 1 and 2, the compounds of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) and (II') can be prepared by reacting sulfonylisocyanates or isothiocyanates of Formulae (III) and (IV), with an appropriate amine of Formula (V), wherein R₁ to R₆ ', R₁₂, A, Q₁, Q and W are as previously defined. ##STR22##

The reactions of Equations 1 and 2 are best carried out in inert aprotic organic solvents such as methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran or acetonitrile at ambient pressure and temperature. The mode of addition is not critical; however, it is often convenient to add the sulfonylisocyanate or isothiocyanate to a stirred suspension of amine V. The reactions are generally exothermic. In some cases the desired product is insoluble in the warm reaction medium and crystallizes from it in pure form. Products soluble in the reaction medium are isolated by evaporation of the solvent, trituration of the solid residue with solvents such as 1-chlorobutane, ethyl ether, ethyl acetate or pentane, and filtration.

Alternatively, as shown in Equations 3 and 4, compounds I, I', II and II', where R₅ is other than CO₂ R₇ and W═O, can be prepared by reacting arylsulfonamides of Formulae (VI) and (VII), respectively, with an appropriate methyl carbamate of Formula (VIII), in the presence of an equimolar amount of trimethylaluminum. ##STR23## wherein for Equations 3 and 4 R₁ to R₆ ', R₁₂, A, Q₁ and Q are as previously defined, except R₅ is other than CO₂ R₇.

The reactions of Equations 3 and 4 are best carried out in methylene chloride at about 25° to 40° C. for 10 to 96 hours under a nitrogen atmosphere. The product is isolated by addition of an aqueous acetic acid or hydrochloric acid solution followed by extraction of the product into methylene chloride, or by direct filtration of a product of low solubility. The product is purified by trituration with solvents such as 1-chlorobutane, ethyl acetate or ethyl ether or subjected to chromatography procedures. Trimethylaluminum is commercially available. The reactions of Equations 3 and 4 are particularly useful for preparing I, I', II and II' (W═O) where sulfonylisocyanates are difficult to prepare from the corresponding sulfonamides VI and VII.

In addition, as shown in Equations 3a and 4a below, compounds of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) and (II') (where W═O) can be prepared by reacting sulfonylcarbamates VI' and VII', respectively, with an appropriate amine V. ##STR24## wherein for Equations 3a and 4a

R₁ to R₆ ', R₁₂, A, Q₁ and Q are as previously defined, except R₅ is other than CO₂ R₇.

The reactions are run at 50°-100° C. in a solvent such as dioxane for 0.5 to 24 hours as taught in EPO Publication No. 44807. The required carbamates VI' and VII' are prepared by reacting corresponding sulfonamides VI and VII, respectively, with diphenylcarbonate in the presence of a strong base.

The intermediate sulfonylisocyanates of Formulae (III) and (IV) (W=0) in Equations 1 and 2 can be prepared from sulfonamides by methods taught in U.S. Pat. No. 4,238,621. The method requires reacting sulfonamides with phosgene, in the presence of n-butylisocyanate and a tertiary amine catalyst, at reflux in a solvent such as xylene or chlorobenzene. A preferred catalyst is 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO).

Alternatively, the sulfonylisocyanates can be prepared from sulfonamides by a two-step procedure. This involves (a) reacting the sulfonamides with n-butylisocyanate and a base such as K₂ CO₃ at reflux in an inert solvent such as 2-butanone to form a n-butyl sulfonylurea; and (b) reacting this compound with phosgene and DABCO catalyst at reflux in xylene or chlorobenzene solvent. The latter method is similar to a procedure taught by Ulrich and Sayigh, New Methods of Preparative Organic Chemistry, Vol. VI, p. 223-241, Academic Press, New York and London, W. Foerst Ed.

The intermediate sulfonylisothiocyanates of Formulae (III) and (IV) (W=S) in Equations 1 and 2 can be prepared from sulfonamides by methods taught in H. Hartke, Arch. Pharm., 229, 174 (1966). The method requires (a) reacting an appropriate sulfonamide with an equivalent amount of carbon disulfide and two equivalents of potassium hydroxide in dimethylformamide at room temperature for 1-8 hours to form the dipotassium salt of the sulfonyliminodithiocarbonate; (b) diluting the suspension with ethyl acetate, ethyl ether or similar aprotic solvent to cause the salt to precipitate, (c) reacting the isolated, dried salt with phosgene in an inert solvent such as xylenes, benzene, carbon tetrachloride or methylene chloride at about room temperature for 1-3 hours; and (d) isolating the sulfonylisothiocyanate, which is usually soluble in the solvent, by filtering off the insoluble potassium chloride and concentrating the filtrate. In place of phosgene, a chloroformic ester (e.g., methyl chloroformate), phosphorus pentachloride, sulfuryl chloride or thionyl chloride may be used.

The compounds of Formula (I), (I'), (II) and (II'), where W is S and R₁₂ is H, may also be prepared by reacting an appropriate sulfonamide with a heterocyclic isothiocyanate of Formula (V'), as shown in Equation 4b. ##STR25## and wherein

R₁ to R₆ ', Q, Q₁ and A are as originally defined.

The reaction is carried out at 25° to 80° C. in an inert, aprotic solvent such as acetone or acetonitrile in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate for 0.5 to 24 hours. The required heterocyclic isothiocyanates V' are prepared from the corresponding amines V as taught in EPO Publication 35893.

The intermediate sulfonamides of Formulae (VI) and (VII) in Equations 3 and 4 can be prepared by reacting corresponding sulfonyl chlorides with ammonium hydroxide or ammonia in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran or methylene chloride at ambient temperature, according to procedures widely reported in the literature for preparing other sulfonamides, e.g., Crossley et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 60, 2223 (1938) and Pailer, Monatsh, 92, 677 (1961).

Arylsulfonyl chlorides are ordinarily prepared from aromatic amines by diazotization with sodium nitrite in HCl, followed by reaction of the diazonium salt with sulfur dioxide and cupric chloride in acetic acid, according to the teachings of Yale and Sowinski, J. Org. Chem., 25, 1824 (1960). As shown in Equations 5 and 6, however, sulfonyl chlorides (XI) and (XII) are preferably prepared by a modification of this procedure. ##STR26##

The diazotization reactions of Equations 5 and 6 are best carried out with sodium nitrite in dilute sulfuric acid (about 20 to 50%), at about 0° to 10° C. for about 0.2 to 1 hour. This method for preparing diazonium salts from benzofuranamines and benzo[b]thiopheneamines is widely reported in the literature, e.g., Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 27, 5939 (1955); Arnold and McCool, ibid 64, 1315 (1942); Neth. Appl. 6,602,601; and U.S. Pat. No. 4,032,649.

The sulfonyl chlorides in Equations 5 and 6 are prepared by reacting the diazonium salts with stirred suspensions containing sulfur dioxide, hydrochloric acid and cupric chloride. The reactions are preferably carried out in a cosolvent mixture consisting of acetic acid-water (about 1:1) and an immiscible, inert solvent such as 1-chlorobutane or methylene chloride, preferably 1-chlorobutane. The reactions are run at about 0° to 40° C., preferably at 25° to 40° C. for 1 to about 24 hours. The mode of addition is not critical; it is however, often convenient to add the diazonium salt to the suspension containing the sulfur dioxide. The sulfonyl chlorides are isolated by addition of water, separation of the organic phase, washing the organic phase with saturated aqueous NaHCO₃ and water and evaporation of the solvent under reduced pressure at less than about 50° C.

An alternate method for preparing some 2,3-dihydro-7-benzo[b]thiophenesulfonamides of Formula (VI) (Q=S) in Equation 3 above is shown in Equation 7 below. ##STR27## wherein

R₁ is C₁ -C₄ alkyl;

R₂ and R₃ are as previously defined;

R₁ ' is H or CH₃ ; and

R₁ " is H or C₁ -C₃ alkyl; when

R₁ " is C₃ H₇, R₁ ' is H.

The reactions of Equation 7(a) are run in-situ as follows: The dilithium salt C is prepared by reacting t-butylbenzenesulfonamide with two equivalents of n-butyl lithium at 0° to 30° C. in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran for one to five hours, according to the teachings of Lombardino, J. Org. Chem., 36, 1843 (1971). The N-t-butyl-2-propenylthiobenzenesulfonamide of Formula E is then prepared by (1) contacting this mixture containing C with elemental sulfur at 0° and stirring at ambient temperature for one to five hours to form lithium thiolate D; (2) contacting this mixture with an appropriate allyl halide at 0° and stirring at ambient temperature for about 24 hours to form E; and (3) isolating E by addition of dilute hydrochloric acid to this mixture to decompose any salts present, followed by separation and concentration of the organic phase. The reaction of organolithium reagents with sulfur to form lithium thiolates which may be alkylated in-situ is known in the art, e.g., Gschwend et al., "Organic Reactions", 26, Chapter 1, p. 83 (1979) and references cited therein.

In Reaction 7(b) above, the N-t-butyl-2,3-dihydro-7-benzo[b]thiophenesulfonamides of Formula F are prepared by heating E either neat or in an inert solvent such as quinoline or N,N-dimethylaniline at 150°-300° C. for 0.25 to 2 hours to cause cyclization. Compound F is isolated by addition of an inert solvent such as ether or methylene chloride, washing well with dilute hydrochloric acid and water, followed by separation and concentration of the organic phase. Compound F can be purified by column chromatography and recrystallization procedures.

And in Reaction 7(c), the t-butylsulfonamides F are dealkylated to form sulfonamides VIa by reacting F with excess trifluoroacetic acid at 20° to 40° C. for about 10 to 30 hours. Compounds VIa are isolated and purified by concentration of the reaction mixture, addition of methylene chloride to the residue, washing the suspension with dilute aqueous NaHCO₃ and concentration of the organic phase. Alternatively, t-butylsulfonamides F may be converted to sulfonamides VIa by heating in methanol containing at least an equimolar quantity of hydrochloric acid, followed by concentration of the reaction mixture and precipitation of the product with ether.

The amines of Formulae (IX) and (X) in Equations 5 and 6 above are important starting materials for the preparation of the compounds of this invention, which can be prepared by the following general methods.

Several of the starting 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5 are known. For instance, 4-amino-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran may be prepared by the procedure of Cruickshank et al., J. Med. Chem., 13, 1110 (1970); 7-amino-2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethylbenzofuran by the procedure of Netherlands Pat. No. 6,602,601; 7-amino-2,3-dihydro-2-methylbenzofuran by the procedure of Belgium Pat. No. 744,858; 4-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran by the procedure of U.S. Pat. No. 3,963,717; and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran by the procedure of U.S. Pat. No. 3,963,717.

The 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is H, CH₃, OCH₃, Cl, F, SCH₃, OCF₂ H, Br or CF₃, can be prepared by a procedure analogous to that taught in Netherlands Pat. No. 6,602,601. This procedure is illustrated in Equation 8 below. ##STR28## wherein

R₁ is C₁ -C₄ alkyl;

R₂, R₃ and R₄ are as originally defined;

R₅ is H, CH₃, OCH₃, Cl, Br, F, CF₃, SCH₃ or OCF₂ H;

R₁ ' is H or CH₃ ; and

R₁ " is H or C₁ -C₃ alkyl; when R₁ " is C₃ H₇, R₁ ' is H.

As shown in Equation 8, the preparation requires three steps: (1) reacting a 3- or 4-(substituted)-2-nitrophenol with an appropriately substituted allyl halide to form intermediate G; (2) heating this compound at elevated temperatures 150° to 300° C. with a catalyst to cause cyclization to form H; and (3) reducing this compound to form IXa. The first reaction is run in a warm protic solvent such as ethanol in the presence of a weak base such as K₂ CO₃. The cyclization step is normally run neat at elevated temperatures, in the range of 150° to 300° C. for 1 to 24 hours. A Friedel-Crafts catalyst, such as magnesium chloride, is ordinarily used to promote the cyclization reaction and increase product yields. Intermediate H may be purified by recrystallization or chromatography procedures. The reduction step can be carried out by any of several known methods for reducing nitro groups to amino groups. For example, intermediate H can be catalytically reduced with 5% palladium-on-charcoal in ethanol solvent at about 25° to 45° C. and at 1 to 3 atmospheres of pressure. Alternatively, H can be heated with stannous chloride in concentrated hydrochloric acid at about 25° to 80° C. for 0.5 to 3 hours to form IXa.

Alternatively, the Claisen rearrangement-cyclization reaction in Equation 8b above can be run stepwise as follows: (a) phenyl allyl ether G can be rearranged at about 150° to 200° C. for 0.5 to 10 hours either neat or in the presence of a suitable high boiling solvent such as diethylaniline or o-dichlorobenzene to yield the corresponding 4- or 5-(substituted)-6-nitro-2-allylphenol, according to the teachings in S. J. Rhoads and N. R. Raulins, Organic Reactions, Vol. 22, p. 1-253, John Wiley and Sons, New York and London, W. G. Dauben, Ed.; and (b) this compound may be cyclized to dihydrobenzofuran H by methods widely reported in the literature for analogous type reactions. For instance, heating the rearranged product with pyrimidine.HCl (R₄ and R₅ ≠OCH₃), or with acidic reagents such as hydrogen bromide in acetic acid, or with a Friedel-Crafts catalyst such as magnesium chloride can yield H according to teachings of Claisen and Tietze, Ann, 449, 81 (1926), and 442, 235 (1925); Arnold and Mc Cool, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 64, 1315 (1942); J. Entel et al., ibid., 73, 2365 (1951); P. Cruickshank et al., J. Med. Chem., 13, 1110 (1970); and Q. Bartz et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 57, 371 (1935).

The 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is OSO₂ R₉, SO₂ R₈, CO₂ R₇, OCH₃, SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁, SCH₃, OCF₂ H or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃, can be prepared as shown in Equation 9 below. ##STR29## wherein

R₁, R₂ and R₃ are as originally defined; and

R₅ is OSO₂ R₉, SO₂ R₈, CO₂ R₇, OCH₃, SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁, SCH₃, OCF₂ H or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃.

According to Equation 9, a 6-chloro-7-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran of Formula (XIII) is reacted with reagents as discussed below to form intermediate I containing the desired R₅ group. The nitro compound I is then reduced to form IXb. These reactions can be run by obvious methods by one skilled in the art.

Intermediate I, where R₅ is OSO₂ CH₃ for example, is prepared in two steps: (1) heating XIII with one equivalent of a strong base such as sodium or potassium hydroxide in dimethylformamide at 50° to 80° C., for 1 to 8 hours, to form I, where R₅ is OH; and (2) reacting the resulting phenol with methanesulfonyl chloride, in the presence of a base such as triethylamine, in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, at 25° to 70° C., for 1 to 24 hours, to form I where R₅ is OSO₂ CH₃. Intermediate I, where R₅ is SO₂ CH₃ for example, is also prepared in two steps: (1) heating XIII with one equivalent of sodium methylmercaptide in dimethylformamide at 25° to 80°, for 1 to 8 hours, to form I, where R₅ is SCH₃ ; and (2) oxidizing the resulting compound with 30% hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid solvent, at 0° to 60°, for 1 to 8 hours, to form I, where R₅ is SO₂ CH₃. Intermediate I, where R₅ is CO₂ CH₃ for example, is prepared in three steps: (1) reacting XIII with one equivalent of potassium cyanide in dimethylformamide at 50° to 80° C., for 1 to 24 hours, to form I where R₅ is CN; (2) hydrolyzing the cyano group to a carboxylic acid by any of several methods known in the art; for example, I where R₅ is CN can be refluxed with concentrated hydrochloric acid in acetic acid solvent to form I where R₅ is CO₂ H; and (3) converting the carboxylic acid to a carbonyl chloride which is then reacted with methanol to form I where R₅ is CO₂ CH₃. The latter reactions can be run by known methods by one skilled in the art. Intermediate I, where R₅ is OCH₃ or OCF₂ H, are prepared by alkylating a phenol of Formula I, where R₅ is OH, with reagents such as dimethylsulfate or methyl iodide or chlorodifluoromethane. The reactions take place in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate in an inert solvent such as dioxane or dimethylformamide at about 0° to 80° C. by methods known in the art. Intermediate I, where R₅ is SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃, are prepared in two steps from I, where R₅ is SCH₃ : (1) Intermediate I, where R₅ is SCH₃, is oxidatively chlorinated to the corresponding sulfonyl chloride by addition of chlorine to the sulfide in the presence of water at about 15° to 80° C., in an aliphatic carboxylic acid solvent such as acetic acid, for 1 to 24 hours to form I, where R₅ is SO₂ Cl; and (2) reacting the sulfonyl chloride with an appropriate secondary amine by general methods to form I, where R₅ is SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃.

In the final step of Equation 9, I can be reduced to IXb by methods previously described in Equation 8. Many starting 6-chloro-7-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (XIII) are also prepared by methods described above in Equation 8.

Similarly, the 4-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is SO₂ R₈, OSO₂ R₉, CO₂ R₇, OCH₃, SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁, SCH₃, OCF₂ H or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃, can be prepared by procedures described in Equation 9. Thus, by starting with an appropriate 5-chloro-4-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, and proceeding with the reactions described above in Equation 9, one skilled in the art can prepare the subject 4-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX). The preparation of many 5-chloro-4-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans is described below in Equation 11. 5-Chloro-4-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran may be prepared by hydrolysis of the diazonium cobaltinitrite salt of 5-chloro-4-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran by obvious methods by one skilled in the art. Similarly, 6-chloro-7-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran of Formula (XIII) in Equation 9 above, may be prepared from 6-chloro-7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran. For general details, refer to an analogous type reaction described in D. E. Bosewell, et al., J. Heterocycl. Chem., 5, 69 (1968).

The 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is NO₂, SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃ can be prepared as shown in Equation 10. ##STR30## wherein

According to Equation 10, a 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran XIV is reacted with reagents as described below to form intermediate J. Then J is deacetylated to form IXc.

Intermediate J, where R₅ is NO₂, is prepared in two steps: (1) nitration of XIV with nitric acid in acetic acid solvent, at about 10° to 25° C., for 0.5 to 5 hours, to form a mixture containing in part J where R₅ is NO₂ ; and (2) separation of J from the mixture by recrystallization or chromatographic procedures.

Intermediate J, where R₅ is SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃, is prepared in three steps: (1) chlorosulfonation of intermediate XIV with chlorosulfonic acid to form a mixture of products containing in part J, where R₅ is SO₂ Cl; (2) contacting the resulting mixture with an appropriate secondary amine in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, at about 10° to 60° C., for 0.5 to 10 hours to form in part J where R₅ is SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃ ; and (3) separation of the desired intermediate J from the crude product by recrystallization or chromatographic procedures. The chlorosulfonation step can be run by reacting XIV with excess chlorosulfonic acid, i.e., about a three equivalent excess, at 25° to 70° C., in an inert solvent such as chloroform, for 0.5 to 8 hours.

Deacetylation of J to form IXc, can be carried out by saponification or acid hydrolysis procedures. Thus, refluxing J in 90% ethanol with one equivalent of sodium hydroxide, for 0.25 to 3 hours, can provide IXc. Alternatively, heating J, at 50° to 80° C., with hydrochloric acid in acetic acid for 0.5 to 3 hours can also provide IXc. The starting compound XIV can be prepared by known methods, i.e., by heating, at 50° to 100° C., an appropriate 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran in acetic anhydride, with a catalytic amount of sulfuric acid, for 1 to 10 hours.

Similarly, the 4-amido-2,3-dihydrobenzufurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is NO₂, SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃, can be prepared by procedures described in Equation 10 above. Thus, by starting with an appropriate 4-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, and proceeding with the appropriate reactions described above in Equation 10, the following compounds can be prepared: 4-amino-2,3-dihydro-5-nitrobenzofurans and 4-amino-5-(N,N-dialkylsulfonamido or N-methyl-N-methoxysulfonamido)-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX), where R₁ to R₃ are as defined above.

According to Equation 11, a 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-4-nitrobenzofuran of Formula (XV) is diazotized, then reacted with appropriate reagents to form intermediate K. Reduction of K can then provide IXd. The diazonium salt can be prepared with sodium nitrite in dilute sulfuric (20 to 50%) at about 0° to 10° C. by methods known in the art, e.g., Arnold and McCool, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 64, 1315 (1942). Intermediate K, where R₅ is as defined above, can be prepared from the diazonium salt by methods also known in the art.

Thus, intermediate K, where R₅ is Cl, Br or F, can be prepared by heating the diazonium salt with cuprous chloride and hydrochloric acid or with cuprous bromide and hydrobromic acid, according to the Sandmeyer reaction, e.g., Powers, J. Med. Chem., 19, 57 (1976) and Morrison and Boyd, Organic Chemistry, 3rd Ed.; pgs. 767-770 (1974).

Am. Chem. Soc., 64, 1315 (1942); and (2) the phenol is then contacted with dimethylsulfate or chlorodifluoromethane as described above in Equation 9 to form K, where R₅ is OCH₃ or OCF₂ H.

Intermediate K, where R₅ is OSO₂ R₉, can be prepared by reacting the phenol described above with an appropriate alkylsulfonyl chloride and a base such as triethylamine in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran at a temperature of about 0° to 60° C.

Intermediate K, where R₅ is CO₂ R₇, is prepared in the following manner: (1) intermediate K, where R₅ is CN, is prepared by the Sandmeyer reaction. Thus, the diazonium salt is heated with cuprous cyanide according to methods well known in the art, e.g, Hansch and Schmidhalter, J. Org. Chem., 20, 1056 (1955); (2) intermediate K, where R₅ is CO₂ H, is then prepared by refluxing the cyano compound, with hydrochloric acid in acetic acid solvent for 1 to 10 hours; and (3) intermediate K, where R₅ is CO₂ R₇, is prepared by converting the carboxylic acid to a carbonyl chloride which is then reacted with appropriate alcohols to form K., where R₅ is CO₂ R₇. Reaction (3), takes place according to methods known in the art.

Intermediate K, where R₅ is H, is prepared by reacting the diazonium salt with 50% hypophosphorous acid at 0° to 20° C. for 1 to 24 hours, according to a procedure of Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 77, 5939 (1955). The final step in Equation 11, the reduction of K to form IXd, is carried out by the methods described previously in Equation 9.

The starting compounds of Formula (XV) in Equation 11 can be prepared according to the disclosure of Arnold and McCool, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 64, 1315 (1942), the disclosure of which is herein incorporated by reference. Arnold and McCool teach the preparation of 5-amino-2,3-dihydro-2-methyl-4-nitrobenzofuran by a multistep procedure starting with the reaction of 4-hydroxyacetophenone with allylbromide. By reacting 4-hydroxyacetophenone with other appropriately substituted allylbromides, or allyl chlorides, and using the multistep reactions and conditions taught by Arnold and McCool, one skilled in the art can prepare the compounds of Formula (XV) in Equation 11.

The 4-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is CH₃, H, Cl, Br, F or CF₃, can be prepared by a procedure analogous to that taught in Cruickshank, J. Med. Chem., 13, 1110 (1970). This procedure is illustrated in Equation 12 below. ##STR32## wherein

Soc., 72, 4326 (1950) and Hurd, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 80, 4711 (1958).

Thus, compound XVII is dehydrogenated by a two-step sequence: (1) 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran XVII is heated at 60° to 80° C. for 1 to 24 hours with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and benzoyl peroxide catalyst in an inert organic solvent such as benzene or carbon tetrachloride thereby brominating the non-aromatic portion of the molecule to form intermediate M; (2) this intermediate is heated with excess N,N-dimethylaniline, [C₆ H₅ N(CH₃)₂ ], either neat or in an inert aprotic solvent such as toluene for 1 to 24 hours, to cause dehydrobromination to form 7-nitrobenzofuran N. Reduction of N to form 7-aminobenzofuran Xa can be carried out by any of several methods known in the art for reducing nitrobenzofurans. For instance, catalytic reduction of N with Raney Nickel catalyst in an inert solvent such as ethanol at about 25° to 70° C. and 1 to 3 atmospheres of hydrogen can provide Xa, according to a procedure of Belgium Pat. No. 744,858. Many of the starting compounds XVII are described above in Equations 8 and 9.

In the first step, a 7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene of Formula (XXIII), is oxidized with 30% hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid at about 50° to 115° C. for 0.5 to 2 hours to form benzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide U. Intermediate U is catalytically hydrogenated with 5% palladium-on-charcoal at 1 to 3 atmospheres of pressure, at 25° to 45° C., in ethanol solvent to form 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide V. In the last step, V is refluxed with zinc and concentrated hydrochloric acid in acetic acid solvent for 1 to 3 hours to produce IXj. Many of the starting 7 -nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes of Formula (XXIII) are described hereinafter.

The 4-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophenes of Formula (IX) in Equation 5, where R₅ is H, CH₃, Cl, Br, OCH₃, CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉, SO₂ R₈, F, CF₃, SCH₃ or OCF₂ H, can also be prepared using procedures described in Equations 20 and 21 above. Thus, by starting with an appropriate 5-chloro-4-nitro-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene, and carrying out the appropriate reactions described in Equation 20 above, one skilled in the art can prepare the subject compounds, where R₂ is SO₂ R₈, CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉, OCH₃, SCH₃ or OCF₂ H. Similarly, by starting with an appropriate 5-(substituted)-4-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene, and carrying out the appropriate reactions described in Equation 21, the subject compounds can be prepared, where R₅ is H, CH₃, OCH₃, Cl, Br, CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉, F, CF.sub. 3, SCH₃ or OCF₂ H.

By starting with an appropriate 4- or 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene, and carrying out the chlorosulfonation reactions described in Equation 10, one skilled in the art can prepare the subject 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophenes of Formula (IX). The starting acetamides can be prepared by known methods, i.e., refluxing a 4- or 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene in acetic anhydride in the presence of sulfuric acid as catalyst. The latter amino compounds can be prepared by the Bucherer reaction, as described above in Equation 17.

The 4- and 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophenes of Formula (X) in Equation 6, where R₅ is H, R₆ is H or C₁ -C₄ alkyl and R₆ ' is H or CH₃, can also be prepared by the Bucherer reaction.

According to Equation 22, a 5-amino-4-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene of Formula (XXIV) is diazotized, then the diazonium salt is reacted with appropriate reagents to form intermediate W. Reduction of W then provides Xe. The diazonium salt can be prepared with sodium nitrite in dilute sulfuric acid (20 to 50%) at 0° to 10° C., a method well-known in the art for diazotizing aminobenzo[b]thiophenes, e.g. Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 77, 5939 (1955). Intermediate W, where R₅ is as defined above, can be prepared from the diazonium salt using methods described heretofore in Equation 11 by one skilled in the art. The reduction step to form Xe from W can be carried out by any of several methods known in the art for reducing nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes to aminobenzo[b]thiophenes, e.g., Bordwell and Albisetti, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 70, 1955 (1948); and Martin-Smith and Reid, J. Chem. Soc., 938 (1960). Thus, refluxing W with stannous chloride and hydrochloric acid in acetic acid solvent for 0.5 to 3 hours can provide Xe. The starting 5-amino-4-nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes of Formula (XXIV) can be prepared by one skilled in the art according to the teachings of Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 77, 5939 (1955); Fries et al., Ann, 527, 83 (1936); and G. Karimov et al., Dokl, Akad. Nauk. Tadzh. SSR, 13, 41 (1970), Chem. Abstr. 75:5605j.

The procedure of Equation 23 involves three reaction steps: (1) refluxing an appropriate 3-(substituted)-2-nitrothiophenol with an α-chloroketone such as chloropropane in the presence of a base such as K₂ CO₃ in acetone solvent for 1 to 10 hours to form intermediate X; cyclizing X in polyphosphoric acid at about 100° for 1 to 24 hours to form a 6-(substituted)-7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene Y; and reducing Y to form Xf. The reduction can be carried out by procedures described above in Equation 22. The cyclization of thiophenoxypropanones to form benzo[b]thiophenes is known in the art, e.g., Karimov et al., Dokl, Akad. Nauk. Tadzh, USSR, 13, 41 (1970), Chem. Abstr. 75:5605j; and Yasuo, Nippon Kagaku Zasshi 88, 758 (1967), Chem. Abstr. 69:59018g.

Also, by substituting chloroacetaldehyde diethyl acetal or 2-chloropropionaldehyde diethyl acetal for the α-chloroketone in Equation 23 above, and carrying out the procedure described therein, one skilled in the art can prepare 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophenes Xf, where R₅ is as defined above, R₆ is H or CH₃ and R₆ ' is H.

Thus, by starting with an appropriate 6-chloro-7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene or 5-chloro-4-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene, and carrying out the appropriate reactions described in Equation 9, one skilled in the art can prepare the subject compounds of Formula (X). The starting 5-chloro-4-nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes and 6-chloro-7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes are described above in Equations 22 and 23, respectively.

Thus, by starting with an appropriate 4- or 7-acetamidobenzo[b]thiophene, and carrying out the nitration procedures described in Equation 10, one skilled in the art can prepare the subject 4- or 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene of Formula (X), where R₅ is NO₂. Similarly, by carrying out the chlorosulfonation reactions on an appropriate 4- or 7-acetamidobenzo[b]thiophene, one can prepare the subject 4- or 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene of Formula (X), where R₅ is SO₂ NR₁₀ R₁₁ or SO₂ N(OCH₃)CH₃. The nitration of acetamidobenzo[b]thiophenes is known in the art, e.g., Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 77, 5939 (1955). The chlorosulfonation of benzo[b]thiophenes is also known, e.g. Pailer, Monatsh 92, 677 (1961).

The preparation involves three steps: (1) acetylation of the amine with acetic anhydride to form a 4- or 7-acetamidobenzo[b]thiophene; (2) oxidation of this compound with 30% hydrogen peroxide to form a 4- or 7-acetamidobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1,-dioxide; and (3) deacetylation of this compound to form a 4- or 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide of Formula (X). The acetylation step can be carried out in refluxing acetic anhydride with sulfuric acid catalyst by obvious methods. The oxidation step can be carried out in acetic acid solvent at 50° to 115° C. for 0.5 to about 3 hours, according to the teachings of Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 77, 5939 (1955). The deacetylation step can be carried out by hydrolysis with hydrochloric acid or saponification with sodium hydroxide by methods described heretofore in Equation 10.

Alternatively, certain 4- and 7-aminobenzo[b]-thiophene-1,1-dioxides of Formula (X) described below can be prepared from corresponding 4- and 7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes. This involves two steps: (1) oxidation of the nitro compound with 30% hydrogen peroxide by methods described above to form a 4- or 7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide; and (2) reduction of this nitro compound to form a 4- or 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide of Formula (X). The reduction step can be carried out with warm stannous chloride and hydrochloric acid in ethanol solvent according to the teachings of Bordwell and Albisetti, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 70, 1955 (1948) and Fries et al., Ann. 527 83 (1936). The starting 4- and 7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes have been described heretofore. By this method the 4- and 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides of Formula (X) can be prepared, where R₅ is H, Cl, Br, OCH₃, SO₂ R₈, CO₂ R₇ or OSO₂ R₉, CH₃, F, CF₃ or OCF₂ H, and R₄ is other than SCH₃.

The 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides of Formula (IX) in Equation 5 (Q═SO₂), where R₅ is other than CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉, NO₂ or SCH₃, and R₄ is other than SCH₃, can be prepared from corresponding 4- and 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophenes. The preparation involves four steps: (1) acetylation of the amine with acetic anhydride to form a 4- or 7-acetamidobenzo[b]thiophene; (2) oxidation of this compound with 30% hydrogen peroxide to form a 4- or 7-acetamidobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide; (3) catalytic reduction of this compound with 5% palladium-on charcoal to form a 4- or 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydro-benzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide; and (4) deacetylation of this compound to form a 4- or 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide of Formula (IX). The acetylation, oxidation and deacetylation steps can be carried out by methods described above for preparing 4- and 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides. The reduction step is best carried out at 25° to 40° C. at 1 to 3 atmospheres of pressure in an inert solvent such as ethanol. The catalytic reduction of benzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides to form 2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides is known in the art, e.g., Bordwell and Stange, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 77, 5939 (1955) and Bordwell and McKellin, ibid, 73, 2251 (1951).

Also, certain 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides of Formula (IX) described below can be prepared from corresponding 4- and 7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophenes. By starting with an appropriate 5-(substituted)-4-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene or 5- or 6-(substituted)-7-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene, and carrying out the reactions heretofore described in Equations 21a and 21b, one skilled in the art can prepare 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides of Formula (IX), where R₅ is H, Cl, Br, CH₃, OCH₃, SO₂ R₈, CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉, F, CF₃ or OCF₂ H and R₄ is other than SCH₃.

The preparation involves three steps: (1) acetylation of the amine with acetic anhydride to form a 4- or 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene; (2) oxidation of this compound with 30% hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid at 15° to 80° C. for 0.5 to about 5 hours to form a 4- or 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxide; and (3) deacetylation of this compound to form the subject compounds of Formula (IX). The acetylation and deacetylation reactions can be run by methods described above for preparing 4- and 7-aminobenzo[b]thiophene-1,1-dioxides from corresponding amines.

Similarly, the 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1-oxides of Formula (IX) in Equation 5 (Q═SO), where R₅ is other than CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉ or SCH₃ and R₄ is other than SCH₃, can be prepared from corresponding 4- and 7-amino-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophenes. The preparation involves three steps: (1) acetylation of the amine with acetic anhydride to form a 4- or 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene; (2) oxidation of this compound with one mole equivalent of m-chloroperbenzoic acid to form a 4- or 7-acetamido-2,3-dihydrobenzoic[b]thiophene-1-oxide; and (3) deacetylation of this compound to form the subject compound of Formula IX. The oxidation step can be run in an inert solvent such as methylene chloride at about 0° to 10° C. for 1 to 16 hours, according to the teachings of Johnson and McCants, Jr., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 87, 1109 (1965). The acetylation and deacetylation steps can be run by methods described above.

By this procedure, the sulfones and sulfoxides of Formulae (IX) and (X) can be prepared where R₄ is H and R₅ is CO₂ R₇, OSO₂ R₉, SO₂ R₈, OCH₃, SCH₃ or OCF₂ H.

Also, sulfonamides of Formula (VI) in Equations 3 and 7 can be oxidized to corresponding dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-1-oxides or 1,1-dioxides by general methods described above by one skilled in the art, wherein R₄ and R₅ are other than SCH₃.

According to Equation 28, a heterocyclic amine is reacted with two equivalents of sodium hydride and excess dimethyl carbonate to form VIIIa. The reaction is run in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran at 25° C. to reflux for 1 to 24 hours. The product is isolated by (a) adding about two equivalents of concentrated hydrochloric acid under nitrogen of 0° to 30° C.; (b) filtering; and (c) separating out the organic phase, then drying (sodium sulfate and/or magnesium sulfate) and concentrating to dryness in vacuo. The product VIIIa may be purified further by recrystallization or chromatography procedures.

Agriculturally suitable salts of compounds of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) and (II') are also useful herbicides and can be prepared by a number of ways known to the art. For example, metal salts can be made by treating compounds of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) or (II') with a solution of alkali or alkaline earth metal salt having a sufficiently basic anion (e.g., hydroxide, alkoxide, carbonate or hydride). Quaternary amine salts can be made by similar techniques.

Salts of compounds of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) and (II') can also be prepared by exchange of one cation to another. Cationic exchange can be effected by direct treatment of an aqueous solution of a salt of a compound of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) or (II') (e.g., alkali metal or quaternary amine salt) with a solution containing the cation to be exchanged. This method is most effective when the desired salt containing the exchanged cation is insoluble in water, e.g., a copper salt, and can be separated by filtration.

Exchange may also be effected by passing an aqueous solution of a salt of a compound of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) or (II') (e.g., an alkali metal or quaternary amine salt) through a column packed with a cation exchange resin containing the cation to be exchanged. In this method, the cation of the resin is exchanged for that of the original salt and the desired product is eluted from the column. This method is particularly useful when the desired salt is water soluble, e.g., a potassium, sodium or calcium salt.

Acid addition salts, useful in this invention, can be obtained by reacting a compound of Formulae (I), (I'), (II) or (II') with a suitable acid, e.g, p-toluenesulfonic acid, trichloroacetic acid or the like.

After stirring for about 0.4 hour at 0° to 5° C., the diazonium salt suspension was poured in one portion into a mixture consisting of 170 ml of acetic acid, 40 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid, 17 g of cupric chloride dehydrate and 30 ml of sulfur dioxide and cooled at 10° C. by an ice-water bath. The mixture was stirred about 1 hour at 15° to 25° C. Then 400 ml of 1-chlorobutane and 200 ml of water was added and the mixture was stirred and heated at 35° C. for 5 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the organic layer was separated, washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO₃ and water, and dried over sodium sulfate for 0.5 hour. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure at less than 45° C. to give 26 g of crude 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuransulfonyl chloride as an oil.

A solution of 26 g of 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuransulfonyl chloride prepared in Example 1, in 130 ml of tetrahydrofuran, was cooled in an ice-water bath while about 30 ml of concentrated aqueous ammonium hydroxide was added portionwise at 10° to 30° C. The resulting suspension was stirred at room temperature for 3 hours, then the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue was stirred in 150 ml of water for 0.5 hour, then filtered.

Formulations

Useful formulations of the compounds of Formulae I, I', II and II' can be prepared in conventional ways. They include dusts, granules, pellets, solutions, suspensions, emulsions, wettable powders, emulsifiable concentrates and the like. Many of these may be applied directly. Sprayable formulations can be extended in suitable media and used at spray volumes of from a few liters to several hundred liters per hectare. High strength compositions are primarily used as intermediates for further formulation. The formulations, broadly, contain about 0.1% to 99% by weight of active ingredient(s) and at least one of (a) about 0.1% to 20% surfactant(s) and (b) about 1% to 99.9% solid or liquid diluent(s). More specifically, they will contain these ingredients in the following approximate proportions:

Lower or higher levels of active ingredient can, of course, be present depending on the intended use and the physical properties of the compound. Higher ratios of surfactant to active ingredient are sometimes desirable, and are achieved by incorporation into the formulation or by tank mixing.

Typical solid diluents are described in Watkins, et al., "Handbook of Insecticide Dust Diluents and Carriers", 2nd Ed., Dorland Books, Caldwell, New Jersey, but other solids, either mined or manufactured, may be used. The more absorptive diluents are preferred for wettable powders and the denser ones for dusts. Typical liquid diluents and solvents are described in Marsden, "Solvents Guide," 2nd Ed., Interscience, New York, 1950. Solubility under 0.1% is preferred for suspension concentrates; solution concentrates are preferably stable against phase separation at 0° C. "McCutcheon's Detergents and Emulsifiers Annual", MC Publishing Corp., Ridgewood, N.J., as well as Sisely and Wood, "Encyclopedia of Surface Active Agents", Chemical Publishing Co., Inc., New York, 1964, list surfactants and recommended uses. All formulations can contain minor amounts of additives to reduce foaming, caking, corrosion, microbiological growth, etc.

The methods of making such compositions are well known. Solutions are prepared by simply mixing the ingredients. Fine solid compositions are made by blending and, usually, grinding as in a hammer or fluid energy mill. Suspensions are prepared by wet milling (see, for example, Littler, U.S. Pat. No. 3,060,084). Granules and pellets may be made by spraying the active material upon preformed granular carriers or by agglomeration techniques. See J. E. Browning, "Agglomeration", Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, pp. 147ff. and "Perry's Chemical Engineer's Handbook", 5th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1973, pp. 8-57ff.

The ingredients are blended and milled to pass through a 100 mesh screen. This material is then added to a fluid bed granulator, the air flow is adjusted to gently fluidize the material, and a fine spray of water is sprayed onto the fluidized material. The fluidization and spraying are continued until granules of the desired size range are made. The spraying is stopped, but fluidization is continued, optionally with heat, until the water content is reduced to the desired level, generally less than 1%. The material is then discharged, screened to the desired size range, generally 14-100 mesh (1410-149 microns), and packaged for use.

The ingredients are blended and ground in a hammer-mill to produce a material essentially all passing a U.S.S. No. 50 screen (0.3 mm opening). The concentrate may be formulated further if necessary.

Utility

The compounds of the present invention are effective herbicides. They have utility for broadspectrum pre- and/or post-emergence weed control in areas where complete control of all vegetation is desired, such as around fuel storage tanks, ammunition depots, industrial storage areas, parking lots, drive-in theaters, around billboards, highway and railroad structures, or on fallow land.

The rates of application for the compounds of the invention are determined by a number of factors, including the types of weeds to be controlled, weather and climate, formulations selected, mode of application, amount of foliage present, etc. In general terms, the subject compounds should be applied at levels of around 0.005 to 5 kg/ha, the lower rates being suggested for use on lighter soils and/or those having a low organic matter content, or for situations where only short-term persistence is required.

The compounds of the invention may be used in combination with any other commercial herbicide examples of which are those of the triazine, triazole, uracil, urea, amide, diphenylether, carbamate, acetanilide, bipyridylium, dinitroaniline and phenolic types.

The herbicidal properties of the subject compounds were discovered in a number of greenhouse tests. The test procedure and results follow.

Test A

Seeds of crabgrass (Digitaria sp.), barnyardgrass (Echinocholoa crusgalli), wild oats (Avena fatua), sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia), morningglory (Ipomoea sp.), cocklebur (Xanthium pensylvanicum), sorghum, corn, soybean, sugar beet, rice, wheat and purple nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus) tubers were planted and treated pre-emergence with the chemicals dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent. At the same time, these crop and weed species, along with cotton and bush bean, were treated with a soil/foliage application. At the time of treatment, the plants ranged in height from 2 to 18 cm. Treated plants and controls were maintained in a greenhouse for sixteen days, after which all species were compared to controls and visually rated for response to treatment. The ratings, summarized in Table A, are based on a numerical scale extending from 0=no injury, to 10=complete kill. The accompanying descriptive symbols have the following meanings:

A=growth acceleration;

C=chlorosis/necrosis;

D=defoliation;

E=emergence inhibition;

G=growth retardation;

H=formative effects;

U=unusual pigmentation;

X=axillary stimulation; and

6Y=abscised buds or flowers.

It will be seen that the compounds have high pre- and post-emergence activity at the low rates of application selected for this evaluation. A few compounds, e.g., Compounds 26, 29, 46, 47 and 52, have low activity at the very low rates of application selected for this test. It is reasonable to assume that these compounds would exhibit higher activity at higher use rates. ##STR94##

TEST B

Two plastic bulb pans were filled with fertilized and limed Woodstown sandy loam. One pan was planted with corn, sorghum, Kentucky bluegrass and several grassy weeds. The other pan was planted with cotton, soybeans, purple nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus), and several broadleaf weeds. The following grassy and broadleaf weeds were planted: crabgrass (Digitaria sanguinalis), barnyardgrass (Echinochloa crusgalli), wild oats (Avena fatua), johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense), dallisgrass (Paspalum dilatatum), giant foxtail (Setaria faberii), cheatgrass (Bromus secalinus), mustard (Brassica arvensis), cocklebur (Xanthium pensylvanicum), pigweed (Amaranthus retroflexus), morningglory (Ipomoea spp.), sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia), teaweed (Sida spinosa), velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti), and jimsonweed (Datura stramonium). A 12.5 cm diameter plastic pot was also filled with prepared soil and planted with rice and wheat. Another 12.5 cm pot was planted with sugarbeets. The above four containers were treated pre-emergence with several test compounds within the scope of the invention.

Twenty-eight days after treatment, the plants were evaluated and visually rated for response to the chemical treatments utilizing the rating system described previously for Test A. The data are summarized in Table B. Note that the compounds are highly active when applied as a pre-emergence treatment at low rates of application to soil.

Test C

The test chemicals, dissolved in a non-phytotoxic solvent, were applied in an overall spray to the foliage and surrounding soil of selected plant species. One day after treatment, plants were observed for rapid burn injury. Approximately fourteen days after treatment, all species were visually compared to untreated controls and rated for response to treatment. The rating system was as described previously for Test A. The data are presented in Table C.

All plant species were seeded in Woodstown sandy loam soil and grown in a greenhouse. The following species were grown in soil contained in plastic pots (25 cm diameter by 13 cm deep): soybeans, cotton, alfalfa, corn, rice, wheat, sorghum, velvetleaf (Abutilon theophrasti), sesbania (Sesbania exaltata), sicklepod (Cassia obtusifolia), morningglory (Ipomoea hederacea), jimsonweed (Datura stramonium), cocklebur (Xanthium pensylvanicum), crabgrass (Digitaria sp.), nutsedge (Cyperus rotundus), barnyardgrass (Echinochola crusgalli), giant foxtail (Setaria faberii) and wild oats (Avena fatua). The following species were grown in soil in a paper cup (12 cm diameter by 13 cm deep): sunflower, sugarbeets, and mustard. All plants were sprayed approximately 14 days after planting. Additional plant species are sometimes added to this standard test in order to evaluate unusual selectivity.

The compounds tested by this procedure are highly active post-emergence herbicides when one considers the low rates of application selected for this test.

Test D

Plastic pots lined with polyethylene bags were filld with prepared Woodstown sandy loam soil. Seeds of kochia (Kochia scoparia), Russian thistle (Salsola kali), downy brome (Bromus tectorum) and green foxtail (Setaria lutescens) were planted. About 10 days later seeds of wheat (Triticum aestivum) and wild oats (Avena fatua) were added. After an additional 10 days, seeds of wheat, corn and sorghum were planted. The compounds were then diluted with a non-phytotoxic solvent and sprayed over the pots. An untreated control and a solvent-alone control were included for comparison. All treatments were maintained in a greenhouse for 19-22 days at which time the treatments were compared to the controls and the effects visually rated.

The data, presented in Table D, indicate that certain of the test compounds have utility for the control of undesirable vegetation on land which is kept in fallow between cereal crops.
